Speedy deletion nomination of The Graduate Institute Bethany
A tag has been placed on The Graduate Institute Bethany, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as FAQ/Business for more information. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. ALI nom nom 19:09, 5 May 2010 (UTC)

How does X work?
Your question. Sustainable5 (talk) 19:42, 5 May 2010 (UTC) What are the recommended changes to make this page compliant with Wikipedia requirements?
 * are you talking about The Graduate Institute Bethany or your talk page? Soph  ie  19:50, 5 May 2010 (UTC)


 * I'm guessing you mean "The Graduate Institute Bethany". Firstly, you may as well start again; the current version has no references at all. The starting point for an article is independent. reliable sources. Only present facts from those - if you can find enough sources. See User:chzz/vrs.


 * If you are connected to the organization, it is highly recommended that you do not write about it at all; please read about conflict of interest and see the business FAQ.


 * WP:FIRST explains the basics of writing articles.  Chzz  ►  19:54, 5 May 2010 (UTC)
